The camel Max Mara is not for me.

I know Laurel aren't they the most beautiful coats you've ever seen. I keep looking at them . . .
― your mom the burrito (ENBB), Thursday, 15 September 2011 16:51 (twelve years ago) link
I mean all of the nice coats I've had over the years have probably originally been around those prices but I've never actually paid full price for them. I always wait until they're marked down. I doubt these will get marked down any time soon though.

Their camel suit-coat is literally stabbing me in the heart with its coolness.

I always wonder what to do with those plain-necked coats. They look bad on me without something in the neckline like a scarf, but then I always have to have a matching scarf on hand and sometimes it's too warm for that, and then things have become too complicated so I don't buy them anymore.
I envy them on other people, though.
― Octavia Butler's gonna be piiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiised (Laurel), Thursday, 15 September 2011 17:19 (twelve years ago) link
Same! I love that coat but in addition to the neck thing I'd worry that it would be too shapeless. It could be one of things that looks amazing on though. I LOVE the color.
― your mom the burrito (ENBB), Thursday, 15 September 2011 17:20 (twelve years ago) link
I'm the same way, too! I always go for big-ass collars.
― quincie, Thursday, 15 September 2011 17:21 (twelve years ago) link
I go for stand-up collars, turned up ones or Mao jacket ones, something with a vertical element.

i haven't gotten into corduroy shirts or chamois shirts but i think they can look ok if you size up and wear em as a light jacket

I thought that shade of maroon that's in was being called "boozy"

yeah i saw the uniqlo ones. the colour of the wine one is a little too smoking jacket for my tastes, and i am not so keen on the wacky checked lining (i am a cuff roller)

these have been in heavy rotation since i have started transitioning to fall
they are actually my boyfriend's but we share a shoe size, it kinda rules

w/ rawhide laced, tho

anyway since ties are kinda my thing i have to say i am going heavy on rough vintage wool & brushed flannel ties, lots of plaids, ancient madder paisleys are definitely seasonal for fall but i kinda hate them
― elmo argonaut, Friday, 16 September 2011 00:43 (twelve years ago) link
oh and embroidered wildlife / hunting patterns! like the dude in the tweed is wearing. also like this one of mine:

so after i posted about rugby shirts i stopped by the thrift on the way home and found a solid green one that fits pretty well! i think it'll look good under the navy puffer vest i found a couple weeks ago
― elmo argonaut, Friday, 16 September 2011 01:16 (twelve years ago) link
i like rugby shirts. isabel marant did some women's rugby inspired styles last season that i really liked but couldn't justify spending that much on a casual weekend piece. might get one eventually since they show up a lot on ebay, i don't think they were super popular
quincie that coat is top class imo

speaking for myself here, but there is a weird tension that can occur between wanting to sleep with someone and wanting to look or dress like them. if you have compatible style & size with your partner it can be an added bonus but... it's not a good reason to get involved with anybody.

why did i buy another plaid flannel shirt on ebay
i have three plaid flannel shirts, two stussy and one ll bean. all three are red and black. my colors are navy and white. my brain doesn't understand why another part of my brain feels compelled to buy this shit over and over again, especially when the whole look is completely played by this point.
